And to those who are still having doubt about firmware releases. As we currently know the 1.3 is coming and also I have lately seen couple of bug comments from bugmaster that indicate that not all bug fixes arrive to 1.3 but they are fixed in internal releases. SO that makes you wonder about future
I don't doubt that they do regard the UI as stable, for the most part it is. But i somehow doubt I am the only one who has received a call while having a few apps running and found the phone function to be unresponsive?

I understand that the N900 is considered a mobile computer (which can also make calls) however, if they can't get that feature 100% right for Maemo after two firmware updates, it's not looking totally positive for MeeGo whenever it finally comes out.

Although maybe these newer phones will have much more power to cope with the processing strain of a call coming in
